Chapter 195 Gambling House
Wang Yi sat at the table, counting page by page, and when Wang Yi counted to 77 pages, he found that there was one page missing from the roster.
Wang Yi is like a person who has been walking in the desert for a long time and has encountered nectar, as if he has been reborn.
Suddenly, Wang Yi lowered his head, looked at the roster in front of him with a strange expression, his fingers stopped in one place, there was nothing on this page, there was no pen and ink, but on this page, there were pitted and concave traces, Wang Yi, who had been reading for many years, knew that this was the trace left by someone after writing on the above page.
Picking up the booklet suddenly, Wang Yi held the roster high, facing the sunlight shining in the sun, observing the traces left on it, this kind of handwriting, Wang Yi is very familiar.
Wang Yi put down the roster and carefully began to split it, from the top of the roster, Wang Yi's index finger and middle finger were together, and Xinghui condensed on his fingers, drawing on the roster little by little.
With a click, the roster split in half from the middle and fell on the table. A little confetti fell with the roster, appeared in Wang Yi's field of vision, floating in the air.
Wang Yi stretched out his hand and caught the falling confetti, he knew that someone else had torn off a page of records from this roster.
Wang Yi brought the confetti to his eyes, and there was really something wrong with the roster.
The people behind the scenes have come to the prison of the Criminal Department, and have revised the roster of people who have entered and exited, and there are traitors in the Jinyi Guard!
Wang Yi beckoned, and now on the side, the guards who had everything in their sights suddenly panicked, thinking that Wang Yi was going to ask him for guilt, so he instantly knelt on the ground, looked nervous, and kept kowtowing, "My lord, my lord, you listen to your subordinates, your subordinates really don't know what's going on, I have never touched this roster, my lord will check it, my lord will check it!!"
Wang Yi squinted, the guard's words, Wang Yi obviously didn't believe it, he and Ma Shun couldn't stay in the prison of the Criminal Department every day, even if someone replaced the guard, so Lu Zhong asked to record the records of everyone's entry and exit, so there was a roster.
But now someone has torn off a page of the roster, obviously someone doesn't want others to know something, so will those people be the ones who came to visit Zhao Qing, will they be the people behind the scenes.
The guard was still kowtowing, and on his forehead, bright red marks appeared, but Wang Yi was holding the confetti in his hand, and the expression on his face did not change at all.
The guard suddenly seemed to think of something, knelt on the ground, moved a few steps in succession, came to Wang Yi's side, and cried: "My lord, I know, there must be something wrong with Zhang Wenxuan, my lord, you go to find Zhang Wenxuan, you will definitely find out a certain problem." ”
Wang Yi looked at the way the guards knelt on the ground and had an idea in his heart.
"I'll give you a chance to atone for your sins, you say, where can we find Zhang Wenxuan?
The guard waved his hand again and again, "My lord Zhang Wenxuan lives in Meridian Lane on weekdays, and now he should be in Meridian Lane at this time." ”
Wang Yi stood up suddenly, opened the door of the prison of the Criminal Department, and the guards in brocade clothes who stood guard outside the door turned around one after another, looking at Wang Yi who came out of the prison of the Criminal Department.
Wang Yi looked at everyone and shouted: "Leave half of the people and stay here, and the rest of the people will go to the Jinyiwei courtyard in Meridian Lane, and go all out to arrest Zhang Wenxuan, remember to catch him alive." ”
"Yes. ”
When a large number of brocade guards returned to Meridian Lane
Wait, Zhang Wenxuan left here early, making everything empty.
"My lord, there's nothing here. ”
Wang Yi is now standing in Meridian Alley, outside Zhang Wenxuan's room, someone has just gone in to look for it, but there is no one in the room.
Wang Yi turned his head and looked at the guard who was standing aside, his face pale.
No matter how stupid the guards are, they understand that their situation is a little bad now, why is Zhang Wenxuan not in the room now?
Wang Yi put one hand on the guard's shoulder, and said in a cold tone: "I'll give you a chance, but you can't grasp it, so don't blame me for being ruthless." ”
Wang Yi condensed Xinghui in his hand, followed his palm, and hit the guard's body, the guard cried out in pain, his legs slightly bent, and his body was half suspended in the air.
Wang Yi actually grabbed the guards with his hands.
Wang Yi exerted himself and slowly lifted the guard above his head, the guard's body flew up, his limbs kept waving wildly, and his mouth kept shouting: "Big... Big... My lord, I don't know what's going on, I'm wronged. ”
Wang Yi obviously didn't believe his words, and Xinghui condensed again, and was about to throw him out.
"Stop. ”
Such a big move by Jinyiwei had already alarmed Lu Zhong, who was in Meridian Lane and Jinyiwei's small courtyard.
Lu Zhong was originally in the room, looking at the bookcase, the news that Jinyiwei kept transmitting, thinking about what clues could be used, before Lu Zhong could do anything, someone came to report, Wang Yi returned here with a large number of Jinyiwei, such a big thing happened, of course Lu Zhong had to come out to take a look.
As soon as Lu Zhong walked out of his room, he saw Wang Yi holding a brocade guard, and the starlight on his body kept pouring out, as if he was going to kill that person.
Wang Yi heard Lu Zhong's voice and frowned slightly, but Wang Yi still put the guard down. Turning around, he said to Lu Zhong, "Lord Lu." ”
Lu Zhong nodded and asked, "What's the matter with Wang Yi?"
Wang Yi told Lu Zhong everything that happened, and even told the strangeness of how he found the roster. After hearing this, Lu Zhong nodded, and understood why Wang Yi did this just now.
Lu Zhong stepped forward and kicked the guard lying on the ground with his foot, "If you are not dead, if you are not dead, get up, this official will give you a chance to live." ”
The guard, who was lying on the ground and pretending to be dead, wanted to escape with Wang Yi's actions just now, but when he heard this, the guard immediately got up from the ground, rushed to Lu Zhong's face, hugged Lu Zhong's legs, and began to plead, "Lord Lu, I am really wronged, I have followed you for so many years, don't you know me?"
Lu Zhong kicked the guard out, and patted the place where the guard had just hugged him with disgust, "Old Song, tell me that you are also an old man of Jinyiwei, why do you not understand the rules so much." ”
The guard, who was called Lao Song by Lu Zhong, fell not far away, but he was unscathed, "My lord, my old Song is loyal to Jinyiwei and all the adults. ”
Lu Zhong waved his hand, "Old Song, you know me, say something useful." ”
Lao Song hurriedly said yes, knelt there, and thought about it carefully.
Wang Yi stepped forward and said in Lu Zhong's ear: "My lord, this old Song is very suspicious, why did you give him a chance so much?"
Lu Zhong sighed slightly, understood
Shi said: "Lao Song has no loyalty to Jinyiwei. ”
Wang Yi frowned, puzzled in his heart. Lu Zhong glanced at it, knelt not far away, and thought about Lao Song, "Lao Song and their family have been Jinyiwei for three generations, and Jinyiwei has a lot of inheritance. His grandfather and his father were both trained as brocade guards when they were young. But it is only when they die that they are told to the next generation who they really are. ”
"Family heirloom?"
Mr. Lu nodded, "This kind of uniform has existed for a long time. Jin Yiwei has been suppressed by the imperial court for so many years, and no one wants to come to Jin Yiwei, and the reason why I was able to take Jin Yiwei to rise strongly in a short period of time is because of this reason. ”
Wang Yi looked at Lao Song in the distance and asked softly, "What if he can't say anything." ”
Lu Zhong said softly: "Kill." ”
In the tone, there is no trace of nostalgia and nostalgia, and some are just regrets.
It's a pity that such a good Jinyi Wei Miaozi, if he can't say anything, he can only die now.
Although Lu Zhong felt a little sorry in his heart, he still had to do what he should do, kill a hundred people, this kind of thing still has to be done, besides, Jinyiwei is like Lao Song. There are a lot of them.
Lao Song sat there, although he was thinking about Zhang Wenxuan's life trajectory in his mind, but Yu Guang was still observing Lu Zhong's side.
After seeing Wang Yi and Lu Zhong talking, Lao Song found the right time and said, "Two adults, I have thought of where Zhang Wenxuan might go. ”
Wang Yi and Lu Zhong glanced at each other and asked, "Where is it?" ”
Lao Song got up, patted his knees on the ground, and walked in front of Lu Zhong and Wang Yi, "My lord, this Zhang Wenxuan likes to gamble on weekdays, and on weekdays, when he is resting, Zhang Wenxuan will go back to places like small gambling halls." ”
Lu Zhong frowned, there were hundreds of official gambling houses in Chang'an City, not to mention those unknown small gambling houses.
Wang Yi has been a Jinyi guard for almost a year, and he more or less knows some specific situations about gambling in Chang'an City.
"Which casino?"
Lao Song was also stunned, where did Zhang Wenxuan go to the gambling house, where did he go.
"My lord, my lord, I don't know about this little one. ”
Wang Yi stepped forward, grabbed Lao Song's shirt, put his face close to Lao Song, looked directly into Lao Song's eyes, and asked, "You really don't know?"
"The little ones really don't know. Lao Song's voice was crying, he really didn't know, but obviously Wang Yi didn't believe it.
Wang Yi let go of Lao Song, turned around, and glanced at Lu Zhong, now only Lu Zhong can decide their next move, whether to kill Lao Song, go back and wait to see Zhao Qing again, or now directly search for Zhang Wenxuan in the whole city and find out his hiding location.
Lu Zhong didn't speak, and the Jinyi guards present didn't dare to move, even Wang Yi stood there, waiting for Lu Zhong's decision.
After Lu Zhong put his hands on his back, no one knew what he was thinking, as the current leader of Jinyiwei, the investigator appointed by His Majesty the Emperor to investigate the incident in the Dexin Palace, Lu Zhong's decision was crucial.
Lu Zhong let out a long sigh, stretched out his right hand, and said to the Jinyi guards: "Everyone is out and go to every gambling house, no matter how big or small, no matter who is in the background, check for me until you find Zhang Wenxuan." ”
"Yes. ”
